Detailed Description

A propagation engine wrapping the propagator algtool it respects the path limit to stop particles if needed.

If the propagation is successful to the surface it will return SuccessfulDestination, the parameters will be attached to the ExtrapolationCell as leadParameters, such that the engine can chose.

It also wraps the MultiTrackParameters

◆ propagate() [1/2]

virtual ExtrapolationCode Trk::IPropagationEngine::propagate	(	ExCellCharged &	ecCell,
		const Surface &	sf,
		PropDirection	dir = `alongMomentum`,
		BoundaryCheck	bcheck = `true`,
		bool	returnCurvilinear = `true`
	)		const

pure virtual

resolve the boundary situation - for charged particles Possible return codes :

SuccessPathLimit (path limit reached)
SucessDestination (surface hit, only when finalPropagation == true)
InProgress (surface hit, when finalPropagation == false)
Recovered (surface not hit, leadParameters stay untouched)

Implemented in Trk::PropagationEngine.
